*NOTES:
• 9 m (30')cables are available by adding suffix “W/30” to the model number of any cabled sensor (e.g., SE61RNC W/30).
• High-speed models may be ordered by adding suffix“MHS” to the model number of any standard ECONO-BEAM dc sensor (e.g., SE61EMHS).
Response time for these sensors decreases to 1 millisecond; faster response comes at the expense of lower excess gain.

Due to their small size, right-angle design, and unique shape, this sensor pair is ideal for mounting
against the side rails of conveyors for use in flow control and product sensing, and are an excellent
choice for use on supermarket checkout stands. They may be bolted face-to-face to form a powerful
slot sensor for edgeguiding of opaque materials or for sensing gear teeth, timing rings, or “flags,” with
enough excess gain to operate even in the dirtiest sensing environments.

ECONO-BEAM Non-Polarized Retroreflective Mode
Visible red, 650 nm
The 1/2" diameter effective beam of retroreflective model SE612LV, measured at 1' from the lens, makes it a good
choice for sensing relatively small objects when opposed sensing is not possible. The visible beam simplifies
alignment to the retroreflective target. Use the largest retroreflective target possible. If sensing materials with shiny
surfaces, scan at an angle of at least 10° to the shiny surface to minimize false light return (“proxing” effect).
Ideal for applications where the target’s reflectivity and profile are sufficient to return a large percentage of the
emitted light back to the sensor.Divergent diffuse model SE612W is particularly useful for sensing transparent or
translucent objects (clear plastic or glass) and for dependable sensing of irregular surface features; its excess gain
falls off sharply beyond 1". As a result, it may be used when it is necessary to ignore background objects.

Mechanical convergent-beam sensor’s light source and receiver opto-elements are positioned in the
housing so that sensing takes place where the optical patterns cross. The sensing beam is intense at the
0.5" convergent point, excellent for sensing materials of low reflectivity and very small targets such as wire
or thread; also effective for reflective sensing in areas where background suppression is a requirement.
Visible red models are useful in some high-contrast color registration applications.
*NOTES:
• 9 m (30')cables are available by adding suffix “W/30” to the model number of any cabled sensor (e.g., SE612C W/30).
• High-speed models may be ordered by adding suffix“MHS” to the model number of any standard ECONO-BEAM dc sensor (e.g., SE612CMHS).
Response time for these sensors decreases to 1 millisecond; faster response comes at the expense of lower excess gain.
